Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
[Verse 2]
This old world's a mighty big place, hallelujah
It's got Satan all over its face, hallelujah
Jordan River is chilly and cold, hallelujah
But it warms the human soul, hallelujah, so
[Verse 3]
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael, row that boat ashore, hallelujah
[Verse 4]
Did you hear what old Jonah said, hallelujah
When the world thought he was dead? Hallelujah
I was takin' me a ride, hallelujah
In that big old whales inside, hallelujah, so
[Verse 5]
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
[Verse 6]
They put Daniel in the lion's den, hallelujah
Then he walked right out again, hallelujah
Reason them lions permitted that, hallelujah
Was that a-Daniel had no fat, hallelujah, so
[Verse 7]
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael, row that boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
[Verse 8]
They nailed Jesus to the cross, hallelujah
But His fate was never lost, hallelujah
So, Christian soldiers, off to war, hallelujah
Hold that line in Arkansas, hallelujah
Like Josh away at Jericho, hallelujah
Alabama's next to go, hallelujah
So, Mississippi, kneel and pray, hallelujah
Some on busses on the way, hallelujah
[Verse 9]
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael, row that boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
